Pauken Lyrics in English LOTTE

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Pauken by LOTTE from German to English.
Hey!
Hey!
I've never been through a hurricane
But I guess
This must be how it feels
Just like right now, sitting next to you
You whirl me up into the sky and back again
Exposed to the storm
I lose myself hopelessly in your gaze
For a moment everything stands still
Only my heart beats the drums
Because near you I don't want anything else
Just feel and crank it up
Like it's the easiest thing in the world
You've put me under your spell
And my heart beats
Hey!
my heart beats the drums
Hey!
Then the lights die, but we keep standing
Outlaw pact for the night, not ready to leave yet
A toast to the barman
We'll take two more on the house
And dance out
For a moment everything stands still
Only my heart beats the drums
Because near you I don't want anything else
Just feel and crank it up
Like it's the easiest thing in the world
You've put me under your spell
And my heart beats
Hey!
my heart beats the drums
Hey!
Hard to believe how I lose myself, woo-oh-oh
When the greatest happens in the small
For a moment everything stands still
Only my heart beats the drums
Because near you I don't want anything else
Just feel and crank it up
Like it's the easiest thing in the world
You've put me inside your spell
And my heart beats
Hey!
my heart beats the drums
Hey!

SONG MEANING

Feel the rush! LOTTE’s “Pauken” drops you straight into the eye of a love-storm, where a simple night out spins into a full-blown Hurricane of heartbeats. The singer compares meeting that special someone to being lifted off the ground, tossed playfully by the wind, and then set back down only to notice that her chest is pounding like kettledrums (the German word Pauken). Every glance, every shared laugh, and every bass line from the bar’s speakers fuses into one dizzying moment in which the outside world pauses, lights dim, and only two people—and one racing heart—remain.

At its core, the song is a celebration of surrendering to pure feeling. LOTTE invites us to crank the volume, forget tomorrow, and toast to the bartender while we dance through the night’s magic spell. “Pauken” reminds learners that sometimes the greatest experiences happen in the smallest instants when you let yourself get swept away, trusting that those thunderous drumbeats in your chest will keep the rhythm of the adventure alive.
